Biography
Eli Peck was born on 19 May 1859 in St. Louis, Missouri, the son of a cattle rancher and a prostitute. He ran away from home at the age of seven and fled to Casper, Wyoming, where he became a ranch hand and later a cattle rustler. Peck was wanted for murdering Benjamin Bottle on 25 June 1882 after getting into a fight with him over his horse, and Peck was tracked down to Lost Cabin in Fremont County by lawmen. Peck attempted to stand against the lawmen, using a Colt revolver to shoot at them, but he was shot five times in the chest as he ran out of the cabin to fight.
